Not really a simple question, as Windows8 is already out >.<

But the answer is yes, it works perfectly fine

errr well I have found an issue with "Screen Width, Height, Depth" functions... for now, hopefully Lee can fix this come January

EDIT

Indicium - ate my cake...

If you having some issues with some programs in windows 8 then try setting the program to run as administrator.

Windows 8 works a bit different to windows 7 when given permissions and I've fount a lot of programs that don't work work fine once changed to run as administrator.

I'm running DBP fine with no problems.

fraps even works fine even when windows 8 said it needs a paid update.

I'm loving windows 8 because of the speed and how much faster it is.

If you don't like to much of a change then keep with windows 7 if you like to move with the times then get windows 8 .
